They show up in Musorg just fine, first the track number, then artist, title, album, genre, and the filename. The ones I'm looking at right now are ogg files; I'm using xiphqt and the files add to the library, other information seems to transfer fine except just the track number, and they play. I don't think it's because they are ogg files that the track number isn't showing up in iTunes because I believe the same thing happened with mp3 files that I had ripped originally in linux. sSince the track numbers show up fine in Musorg, I'm baffled as to why they don't show in iTunes. I've been slowly plodding away manually adding track numbers to album tracks but it would be nice if I could solve this and get them added without having to do all this work. Any further ideas? When I import a cd, the track numbers do appear.

Um, iTunes doesn't support Ogg files. It's very probably that adding them via xiphqt is leading to the tags not being read correctly.
